I struggled with a use case at first as an individual user, but now I'm using it in a few different places.
I have a Synology on my home network which I use for Time Machine backups among other things. My Mac has a Tailscale client and I can backup to my Synology from anywhere.
I have a number of random servers I keep for hobby stuff, a mix of hosted bare metal, VMs and VPS. None of them have SSH open to the internet. My access is all over Tailscale. It was super easy to setup, and now I never have to touch it. Occasionally I'll see that the Tailscale daemon was updated on some host.
If I were starting a company today, as soon as I had any resources that needed any kind of remote access for the team, I'd use Tailscale to provide that access.
- mercutio2 5y agoHow did you get your Synology on Tailscale? I have been pondering setting up Tailscale just to get remote access but I haven’t found good examples of people doing this.
- TheFlyingFish 5y agoTailscale has a Synology package. You just install, log in, and there you go.
- mercutio2 5y agoWhoa! I don't know if my basic googling skills have atrophied, or if that's new, but I am so going to use that. Thanks!
- discordance 5y agoMay not be your fault. Google is not the great tool it was for finding the most relevant information anymore.
